AK hitting A or K by the river
 

Does that go for every hand? Does 67 hit a 6 or a 7 if it goes to the river, theoretically? If not, what makes it more likely or less likely than AK?

same odds. however what's the likelihood of the 6 or 7 being good at the river

No, the Aces are more likely to come out because they have only one Pip on them and use less ink to print them, so they are lighter. Cards like 6 or 7 have a lot of Pips to form the 6 or 7, a lot more ink, so they are heavier and tend to float down to the bottom of the deck and never see the flop.

Seriously, a 76 is just as likely to appear on the board as an AK. But look what happens when 76 meets AK:

If both a 6 or 7 appears along with an A or K - the AK hand wins.
If neither a 6 or 7 appears and a A or K doesn't appear - the AK hand wins.
The 76 hand only wins when a 6 or 7 appears, and a A or K doesn't - about 25% of the time.

So that is why you usually raise with AK and fold 67.
